letra de seven kings, one rome - theincredibleasaph

Loading...

well it starts with aneas when he fled from the greeks
had his daddy on his shoulder and his son at his knees
he led is men to italy, across the aegean
said “here’s where i’m gonna stay” and the natives were agreein’ ’cause they gave him lavinia the fair and the pretty
to show that they were tight that’s what he named his city

now the city wasn’t rome though its heritage was greater
rome wasn’t gonna come ’till 400 years later

there’s only one fatherland, there’s only one home
there may be seven kings, but there’s only one rome

when romulus, son of mars, raised by a she-wolf
k!lled his bro, made the city, that was gonna be-wolf
the head of the world so he said in a dream
he also made the senators and fought the sabines

numa pompilius was the next one to rule
he thought temples were fantastic, but the fighting wasn’t cool
he made a lot of priests and he made a lot of laws
built the temple to j-n-s with significant doors
which were closed during peace, but stayed open for a while ’cause the next king was tullus who was very hostile

he fought the alba longans and conquered them his well
his horatii triplets sent them straight to
so what did he do with his booty and wealth?
built a house to the senate which he named after himself

there’s only one fatherland, there’s only one home
there may be seven kings, but there’s only one rome

next was ancus marcius who conquered two hills
built a prison where is enemies would wait ’till they were k!lled
rome’s first port and bridge were to other things he made
drew the citizens together
helped to stimulate trade

when he died his sons went hunting
pretty bad move
’cause in rome was an etruscan who had everything to prove
named tarquinius priscus who became the next king
his technology and culture helped the romans to spring
from the past to the future though he hadn’t quite won
in the end, he was k!lled by ancus marcius’ sons

there’s only one fatherland, there’s only one home
there may be seven kings, but there’s only one rome

next servius tullus by the senate’s decree became king
organized the romans into centuries based on wealth
while the richer ones had more power
they were called upon to fight while the poorer ones cowered

he was k!lled by his daughter, treacherous supplanter
ran him over with a chariot in a hit and canter
this cold blooded murder left the romans so cowed
she made her husband king, tarquinius the proud

now he did build a temple and he did build a sewer
but his constant cruelties made his followers grow fewer
’till the rape of lucretia the romans had enough
kings were out, that was it, if they didn’t like it, tough

lead by lucius junus brutus in her iron resolve
rome would have no more kings ’till the day she would fall
